5 NBA Players Who Could KISS THE RIM (Highest Jumps EVER)
Blake Griffin once jumped so high that he literally smashed his head against the backboard and as you can see he probably would have gone even higher. Throughout the years I've seen some inhuman jumps and in this video I'm gonna show you a few players could go so high that they could kiss the rim. What up everybody my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let's get into it. Starting off at number five with a guy who did in fact come extremely close to actually kissing the rim Dwight Howard tried this at one of his dunk contest practice sessions and on his second attempt he hit his head. That's how high he was. So it should come as no surprise that Howard was able to fly so high on a superman dunk that he was above the basket and that's how he could throw the ball inside. Dwight's incredible athleticism in combination with his size allowed him to be eye level with the basket quite a few times during his prime. Next up at number 4 here's a little surprise for you. Shannon brown lakers fans definitely remember his dunks and blocks which were equally as impressive. Like, look at where his head is on this dunk. This is absolutely crazy. And possibly even crazier are some of his defensive plays. This is one of the most iconic blocks that i've seen and i don't even care that it was called a foul. After losing the ball brown catapulted himself and completely obliterated this shot. And last one from Shannon, take a look at this. Brown has to put his head down to not smash it against the iron and look at how far up his arm is. This is almost his armpit at the rim which is hilarious. Number three is Blake Griffin. Excuse the grainy footage as this is the only proof of this monster jump by Blake. Head clearly above the rim plus he was fouled. Incredible force and jumping ability by Griffin. And here's another dunk that not many of you know where similar to Shannon Brown his arm is so high up and also has to move his head a little bit to avoid hitting himself. At number 2 lebron James. young Lebron could jump out of the building and this is one of my favorite flights that he took. i've spent so much time watching all the different angles of this alley-oop. Look at how high he is and of course the last second hit till to avoid bumping the rim. This is beautiful. And there's another similar one. By the way props to Norris Cole for apparently throwing the perfect lobs to maximize Lebron's vertical jump. But the most iconic, most absurd display of his jumping ability came in 2010 against the blazers. As you enjoy all the angles from this incredible leap i just want to say that this is probably the highest that an nba player has ever jumped in my opinion. Feel free to let me know in the comments if you can find something better than this but i'm not sure you'll be able to. But why is this at number 2 then? Because at number one is the guy who has the most jumps that i like to call "kiss the rim". It's gerald green. I mean the guy even has a windmill with his head clearly above the iron. Are you kidding me?! Gerald Green could possibly be the most underrated dunker in nba history. When you look at these clips you can see his raw jumping power and of course when he doesn't have to dunk the ball. Look at how high he can go. This is unbelievable. But honestly all five of these guys had crazy hops so you could pretty much place them however you want it on this list. Hopefully you hadn't seen most of these and you were able to enjoy this video that much more. And before you post all these comments about zion he technically hasn't played a single nba game which puts him in the category with all the professional dunkers which i know they could go way up but they never played in the league. That's it for now. If you like this video subscribe and hit the notification bell so that you don't miss my future in-depth analysis. Talk to you in the next one peace out
The Lakers Made A FATAL MISTAKE...
Jimmy Butler had one of the most heroic finals performances in NBA history. A 40 point triple double. And he went directly at Lebron James saying you’re in trouble. So Let’s break down how Miami did the unthinkable with 2 of their starters injured, but also the fatal mistakes the Lakers made to allow them to get the win. What up everybody my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it. First up, we gotta talk about Jimmy. Tell me what you see in these clips. Right here with KCP on him it’s bullyball straight to the rim. Next up, Kuzma, same thing. Goes to the paint and gets the bucket. This possession it’s Danny Green, can you guess what happens? Throughout the entire game, over and over again. He was determined that every time when Lebron was not guarding him, it’s gonna be bullyball inside. But James is his primary defender, so how did Miami get him off of Jimmy? Well similarly to Butler, the role players were also aggressive. On the hand offs from Jimmy they were looking to score. Right here Nunn curls, forces Lebron to switch, not afraid of the moment and knocks it in. Here’s Tyler Herro doing the same thing. When you shoot and eventually make some of these, James has to move away from Butler and contest. And here we have Duncan Robinson with the exact same thing from the hand off. But speaking of Robinson, there was something interesting I noticed. First of all, he actually was a threat for once. If games 1 and 2 Spoelstra had to yell this to him, he was out there moving and cutting and forcing switches and shooting the ball. Even if he didn’t make a lot of them, it still opened up other opportunities for Butler for example. But check this out. As opposed to just 21 and 27 minutes in the first 2 games, he now played almost 40. And the answer is on the defensive end. While previously Lebron would hunt him for the mismatch and then dominate, now as you can see right here both Robinson and Herro, would just jump out and briefly be there, enough to get Butler time to go over the screen. And while there’s always the danger of an open shot, in this game we saw a lot of situations where the Lakers offense would be slowed down and they didn’t get the matchup they wanted. So that’s how Miami’s smaller guards were able to hold their own and stay on the court. But let’s put Jimmy Butler’s hero mode performance, and the Heat’s defensive adjustment aside, and let’s talk about some of the fatal mistakes that directly impacted the Lakers to lose this game. First of all the Lakers had 19 turnovers in this game and Lebron had 8 of those. Sure, the Heat were aggressive with their backs against the wall, but there were a lot of mistakes that cannot happen in a finals game. Next, Anthony Davis had 0 points and just 1 shot attempt throughout the entire 4th quarter. For your leading scorer to almost not even touch the ball for the entire quarter that’s inexcusable. Combined with the fact that Davis had 3 fouls earlier in the first half, he was limited to 15 points in this game. But again, he has to be more assertive with the game on the line, and the Lakers have to go to him. As big of a problem as Lebron is to Miami, Davis is just as much if not more in this series. So this is crazy to me that in the 10 minutes he played in the fourth, he got only 1 shot. And finally, finishing up the same way I started this video. Just from a different perspective. Los Angeles literally watched Butler and allowed him to barrel his way to the rim and either score or get free throws without changing up anything defensively. Literally the entire 4th quarter the Heat’s offense was get the ball to Jimmy, get Lebron off of him and let him go to work. These are some things that I believe Vogel and the coaching staff will address and there will be adjustments for the next game. And speaking of that, I’m looking forward to game 4. Miami got their confidence and their swagger back with this win, so with a chance to tie it up the next one should be a war. And I’m very excited for it. That’s it for now, subscribe and talk to you in the next one. Peace out.

Lebron James DIDN'T LIKE THIS...
We finally have our NBA finals matchup. The Heat vs the Lakers. And even tho both teams know that to win a championship you have to be ready against anybody, I have a feeling that if you gave truth serum to Lebron James and the Lakers, all of them will tell you that they wanted Boston in the finals, and not Miami. Let me explain why that is, and why this could be a great finals series. What up everybody my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it. I could tell you all about how the Lakers won the 2 regular season games, but in reality their last meeting was in December. Almost a year ago. Since then obviously we saw Duncan Robinson and Tyler Herro grow right before our eyes into knockdown shooters. And Bam Adebayo took the next step and is hitting his stride with the latest performance of career high 32 points, and 14 rebounds in the close out game 6 against the Celtics. So yeah, let’s talk about what we can expect from this finals matchup. Throughout the playoffs, The Lakers have averaged almost 41 points per game on 71% from the restricted area. These numbers are by far the best for any team in the postseason. So you know that they’ll be doing the damage inside. Thing is, instead of Daniel Theis trying to hold on for dear life against Anthony Davis, the Heat have Bam who is far more dangerous both defensively with his strength and quickness but infinitely more on offense as I previously mentioned his numbers and there is no comparison on that end between him and Theis. Miami can also rely on their zone and force the Lakers into making shots. All of a sudden, players like Danny Green, Kuzma and KCP become very important. And we’ve seen the first 2 struggle at times, so if the zone got the Heat past Boston- a way better suited team against this type of defense, then I’m sure that Erik Spoelstra’s group believes that they can win against LA. It’s also going to be fun seeing Lebron matched up against Iguodala yet again in the finals. And there’s gonna be help from guys like Crowder and Jimmy Butler. It’s interesting, It’s almost as if the Heat built this team knowing that they’ll go to the finals and battle against James. Anyway, I also wanted to point out that perimeter defenders like playoff Rondo and Carusso will absolutely hound Tyler Herro, in the minutes when he fills in for Dragic at point guard. He’s been the Heat’s designated backup point guard, but that’s not his natural position and you could see throughout the Celtics series. Herro struggled with his ball handling against dogs like Brown and Smart, so you already know that a mastermind like Rondo already took notes and will attack him on defense. So look for that it’s going to be a fun Tom and Jerry type of chasing. If you ask me to tell you who won without watching the game I will look at 2 stats. Points in the paint and 3 point shooting. If there’s a big difference, I’ll know that either the Lakers overpowered Miami and scored inside so they won, or the Heat shot the ball as they are capable of with the snipers that they have, so they were able to get a win. Of course, a lot more is in play but these are just some things for you to watch out for. All in all, trust me when I tell you this is going to be a hard fought battle, with both teams having a lot of talent but a lot of dogs as I said, and they will go all out in the pursuit for the championship. Ya boy is bullish on the Heat. I picked them against the Bucks, so I’m picking them again against the Lakers, knowing full well that they are the clear underdog here. But if you said this to Jimmy Butler and company there’s no way they agree, so they’re not backing down in this fight. Let me know in the comments who you got in the finals and why. That’s it for now, subscribe and talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
He Was "THE NEXT MICHAEL JORDAN" But Then...
Throughout the 90s, it was as though nearly all media, fans, and everyone following the NBA were obsessed with trying to find the “next Michael Jordan”, even ...
THIS IS WHY Boston Celtics Are IMPLODING
Watch this possession. The Heat are in a 2-3 zone, something that they run to perfection on defense. There are 2 defenders next to the ball at all times. Great effort and great execution, forcing the Celtics to make a lot of quick decisions. And when you’re in a rush, as you can see here the result is turnovers. Boston had 20 turnovers as opposed to just 9 for the Heat. And in a close game like this one, it proved to be fatal for them. So let’s check out a few more plays and see how Eric Spoelstra’s team got out to a 2 game lead in the series. What up everybody my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it. The reason why the Celtics struggle against the zone as it happened with Toronto as well, is the fact that they like to run a lot of their plays through Kemba or Tatum and find a favorable mismatch for them. From there it’s either the drive for a layup or a kickout, or the shake and bake for the pull up jumpshot. Thing is, with the zone, there is always a help defender, as you can see this possession right here where Tatum is swarmed by multiple defenders at all times. Again, look at the incredible activity. 2 guys chasing Walker, and as he gives it up and Brown starts to drive, Olynuk is back to contest it and forces a miss. Perfect execution. On the offensive end, Miami absolutely destroyed Boston with the pick and roll. That’s how Adebayo got most of his points to finish of a monster game of 10 for 16 from the field. 21 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists at the end for Bam, but as you can see, the nonexistent Celtics helpside defense had a lot to do with that. And I need to stress something. Do you know who’s been the Heat’s leading scorer throughout these playoffs? No it’s not Jimmy Butler, Adebayo or any of the heatcheck highlight factory guys like Herro or Duncan Robinson. It’s actually Goran Dragic who you’ll never see him on the nightly top 10 lists, but the guy is just a championship level player. Always under control, makes the right play every single time, and has incredible control of the pace of the game. He proved that once again with 25 points on a super efficient 52 and a half percent from the field. The Dragon deserves way more credit for this incredible postseason run that the Heat have been able to make so far. As for the Celtics, they didn’t take this loss well at all. There were tweets from reporters in the bubble about a lot of yelling and arguing in the locker room after the game. Unsurprisingly Marcus Smart, their emotional leader was the guy who did most of the yelling and throwing objects even. One of the tweets said: the team is imploding. Which is a very serious statement to make in the middle of a conference finals. Boston will not practice today, probably in an attempt to cool their heads and calm down. But then, how will they prepare for this Miami Heat zone that’s been causing them so much trouble in these 2 games? Even tho Denver showed us that big comebacks can happen in the bubble, the Celtics are in a must win situation for game 3 so it’s definitely going to be a huge battle. And I’m extremely excited for it. That’s it for now, subscribe and talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
THIS IS WHY Playoff Rondo Is A LAKERS HERO
If you watched the Lakers dismantling the Rockets in game 4 all the way to the end, you saw this wild alley oop pass from Rondo for the incredible Lebron James finish. And this beautiful coast to coast drive and the lob to Anthony Davis. However, with a championship level player like Rajon it’s never about the highlight plays, so let me show you exactly how the legend of Playoff Rondo grew even stronger in this series. What up everybody my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it. This quasi nickname dates back to the Celtics championship season in 08 when Rondo sort of played better and better with each round of the playoffs. Then, some of you may remember his performance with the 8th seeded Bulls against the number 1 Celtics in 2017 when Chicago stunned Boston in the first 2 games. He then got injured and the whole story changed completely, as the Celtics won the next 4 games in a row. Chicago fans to this day say that they lost that series only because of the Rondo injury. Then there was that spectacular beatdown of the number 3 seed Blazers that Rajon and the Pelicans executed in 2018 as a 6 seed. Players are well aware of his intensity and competitive spirit, so at this point they expect these types of performances from him. The story is no different this year as he just came back from the injury for this series and has already left a huge imprint on it. Just look at this clampdown on James Harden. Pressing him all the way in the backcourt as if the beard is some rookie or even a high school player and not a perennial MVP candidate. And again, look at all of these examples of Rondo’s help defense, where he either forced the Rockets into taking a tough shot or just straight up stole the ball. This is just a small sample size of Rajon’s phenomenal basketball IQ that another smart guy like Lebron appreciates, and Anthony Davis experienced first hand in that year in New Orleans. But playoff Rondo is great offensively as well against Houston. So far he’s averaging 12 and a half points and 7 and a half assists in just 28 minutes of action. And hey check this out. He’s never been known as a shooter of course, but against the Rockets, Rondo is making almost 2 threes per game and 41% from downtown. The Lakers will gladly take that little bit of help offensively. With a strong 3-1 lead at the moment, it seems that this team has a firm grip on this series, and everything points towards a high anticipated battle of LA. In a potential Lakers vs Clippers Western Conference Finals matchup, the experience, intensity, and overall play of Playoff Rondo will be invaluable to Lebron and AD as they’ve been looking for a reliable third guy throughout the entire season. And he emerged seemingly at the right time. That’s it for now, if you liked this video, subscribe and hit the notification bell so that you don’t miss my future in depth analysis.
